Idk about that one. Trask likely goes in the 2nd. There is a lot to work with.

Maybe someone will take him there but I'm definitely not seeing a lot to work with in terms of a starter. I could definitely see him being one of those 10+ year career backups who have spot starting appearances in the mold of a Derek Anderson.

If we draft Mac Jones in the first round I am getting hammered immediately after. Yikes. 

Me too, ugh.  I hope they aren't that high on him.

I really want Fields so I'm hoping for a trade up to 3.

Given the restructuring are you sure Atlanta is going QB?

Derek Anderson/Nick Foles would be the right comparison yep.

We have assets budgeted for a QB. Whether that's for Watson or a draft pick, we need to use the budget we have to get the best we can. That means moving up to 3. I'm not settling for the leftover QBs at 8. If we stay at 8 we should be drafting a different position.

I compare Trask to Jake Frohmm who went later than expected last year.

Yeah, but you'll be cheering next year and relieved we didn't grab one of the trendier picks that ends up flopping.

Jones is the Subaru pick. It's not going to win a drag race and it certainly isn't the prettiest on the lot, but it'll get you everywhere you want to go for 20 years including the climb of that so-far impossible mountain. And yes, your friends will chuckle when you buy it. You'll wave at them as you roll by the used car lot they are dumping their picks at in four years.

Yep. I agree, Jones is the Subaru pick. I had a Subaru as a company provides vehicle. Simply awful. It's impressive to create a vehicle that is so bad at everything.

I'm not moving up for a QB not named Lawrence or Wilson.

      The guy has not coach college in ten years and in that span its greatly changed. Still take him over Davis, I want to see the presser and if billy still has fire in his eyes for college non-sense.....plus you know billy will want a multi-million staff.  This is interesting, very....... glad the old guard FINALLY steps aside......

      Processing Blue: immediate draft needs

      By Basbear · Posted

      He's a hard player to rank, cause he is a young NT. I do see his abilities to branch out among the DL. That's the only way for him to land in the 1st, some team has to believe he's got the stuff to play DE or T3.... I just don't see using 19 on him, I feel there should be around 7 players just ranked higher than him for the Panthers team.  ___________________________________________________________________   Now you are a roster nut like me. Im tossing this into fire, I think a good move is to trade UP, yes rare. Just the roster #s tell me 5 rookies and no more than 2 starters will make the team. I feel 5 is magic number.    QB- 2  BY, Pickett RB- 3   Chubba, Brooks(pls), etienne TE- 4   Sanders, Temble, Evans, Draft pick/major/franks/UDFA OL- 10   Walker, Lewis, Fortner, Hunt, Motown, Zavailla, Samac, Stone, Draft pick, Draft pick/Charles/carter WR-  6   Tmac, XL, Coker, Metch, Horn, Tremay   offense=  25 with 3 draft picks   DL-  6   Brown, Brown, Wharton, Ray, Cam, Hunter/draft pick Ed-   5  Phillips, Nic, Prince, Jones, ST/incoom/hampton ILB-   5  Lloyd, Wallace, Bam, Claud, draft pick CB-    5 Horn, Jackson, Thor, Evans, draft pick/CSN/UDFA SS-  4  Scott, More, Ramsom, Sim   Defense = 25 with 2 picks   ST = known 3+o+d = 53 roster   SO I see only room for 5-6 with factoring in UDFA pool. That tells me to trade up! Bonus the 1st+3rd gets in front of TB yucs. Then use one of the 5ths+2nd to draft another target. That's your two starters and use the 4th, 5th and 6th for the development OTs and what ever the best player are at the pick/DB. The last couple years they have added 2-3 UDFA each year, maybe the same this year too. Soooooooo Im normally 95% trade back, but above made me change my mind. I do not want to waive 5th rounder, I feel thats high with players on the bench.    ?? There's waiver claims too, they have done that each year.
